Megson puzzled why Bolton supporters dislike him

Bolton Wanderers boss Gary Megson has taken the team into Europe and kept them in the Premiership but still the fans don't like him. Megson said: "I find it really strange and I do not like it. Things happened before I even walked through the door. It was three days before I started work and it has gone on right the way through.

"There will have been six clubs relegated in that time and Bolton have not been one of them.

"Under me this club got a lot further than ever before in Europe (quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup).

"We went to Bayern Munich with the reserves and got a draw there. We also beat Atletico Madrid with the reserves.

"We stayed up and made a profit. We are here again and looking to go forward. There must be a lot of other clubs having huge problems if I am getting stick."
